The numerical damping and dispersion error characteristics associated with difference schemes and a panel shift method used for the calculation of steady free surface flows by a panel method are an analysed in this paper. First, 12 finite difference operators used for the double model flow by Letcher are applied to a two dimensional cylinder with the Kelvin free surface condition and the numerical errors with these schemes are compared with those by the panel shift method. Then, 3-D waves due to a submerged source are calculated by the difference schemes, the panel shift method and also by a higher order boundary element method(HOBEM). Finally, the waves and wave resistance for Wigley's hull are calculated with these three schemes. It is shown that the panel shift method is free of numerical damping and dispersion error and performs better than the difference schemes. However, it can be concluded that the HOBEM also free of the numerical damping and dispersion error is the most stable, accurate and efficient.

Wave breaking phenomenon near the fore body of a ship is numerically simulated. The ship advance with uniform velocity in calm water. For the simulation, incompressible Navier-Stokes equations and continuity equation are adopted as governing equations. The simulation is carried out in staggered variable mesh system with finite difference method. Marker and Cell(MAC) method and Marker-Density method are employed to track the free surface. Body boundary conditions are satisfied with the adoption of porosity method and no-slip condition on the hull surface. The ship model has a wedge type fore-body, and the computational domain is an appropriate region around the fore-body. The computation results are compared with some experimental results. Also the difference of the free surface tracking methods are discussed.

The bow wave breaking and the viscous interaction of stern wave are studied by simulating the free-surface flows. The Navier-Stokes equation is solved by a finite difference method in which the body-fitted coordinate system, the wall function and the triple-grid system are invoked. After validation, the calculations are extended to turbulent flows. The wave elevation at the Reynolds number of $10^4$ is much less than that at $10^6$ although the Froude number is the same. The numerical appearance of the sub-breaking waves is qualitatively supported by experimental observation. They are also applied to study the stern flow of S-103 for which extensive experimental data are available. Although the interaction between separation and the stern wave generation are not yet clear, the effects of the bow wave on the development of the boundary layer flows are concluded to be significant.

The increasing capabilities of the computers enable us to utilize various numerical schemes for the time-domain simulations concerned with 3-dimensional free-surface wave problems. There are still difficulties to solve such kind of problems, however. That's because long time simulations with large computational domain are needed in time-domain analysis. So, we need faster and more efficient numerical schemes to get the solutions practically for these problems. In this paper, a high-order spectral/boundary-element method is used for the numerical investigation of physics involved in wave-body interaction. This method is one of the most efficient numerical methods by which the nonlinear gravity waves can be simulated and hydrodynamic forces also can be calculated in time-domain. To get the robust study in these topics, various numerical tests are performed and compared with others' works.

In this study, the topics for free-surface wave simulation, nonlinear hydrodynamic force, and the critical resonance frequency of so-called ${\tau}=U{\omega}/g$=1/4 are discussed. A high-order spectral/boundary element method is newly adapted as an efficient numerical tool. This method is one of the most efficient numerical methods by which the nonlinear gravity waves can be simulated and hydrodynamic forces also can be calculated in time domain. In this method, the velocity potential is expressed as the sum of surface potential and body potential. Then, surface potential is solved by using the high-order spectral method and body potential is solved by using the high-order boundary element method. By the combination of these two methods, the wave-making problems by a submerged sphere oscillating with forward speed under the free-surface are solved in time domain.

In this study, a nonlinear wave simulation code is developed using a higher-order spectral (HOS) method. The HOS method is very efficient because it can determine the solution of the boundary value problem using fast Fourier transform (FFT) without matrix operation. Based on the HOS order, the vertical velocity of the free surface boundary was estimated and applied to the nonlinear free surface boundary condition. Time integration was carried out using the fourth order Runge-Kutta method, which is known to be stable for nonlinear free-surface problems. Numerical stability against the aliasing effect was guaranteed by using the zero-padding method. In addition to simulating the initial wave field distribution, a nonlinear adjusted region for wave generation and a damping region for wave absorption were introduced for wave generation simulation. To validate the developed simulation code, the adjusted simulation was carried out and its results were compared to the eighth order Stokes theory. Long-time simulations were carried out on the irregular wave field distribution, and nonlinear wave propagation characteristics were observed from the results of the simulations. Nonlinear adjusted and damping regions were introduced to implement a numerical wave tank that successfully generated nonlinear regular waves. According to the variation in the mean wave steepness, irregular wave simulations were carried out in the numerical wave tank. The simulation results indicated an increase in the nonlinear interaction between the wave components, which was numerically verified as the mean wave steepness. The results of this study demonstrate that the HOS method is an accurate and efficient method for predicting the nonlinear interaction between waves, which increases with wave steepness.

Laplace 방정식을 Green 공식으로 해석한 경계요소법을 이용하여 수치수조에서 비선형파를 재현하였다. 미지수는 유체영역의 경계에 설정한 각 절점에서의 속도포텐셜과 수면변위이며 이를 구하기 위하여 지배방정식과 자유수면 경계조건을 기본식으로 하는 연립 1차방정식을 구성하였다. 동력학적 자유수면 경계조건에서 속도의 제곱항을 고려하였으며 자유수면 경계에서 속도포텐셜의 연직변화를 고려하여 이의 시간미분을 계산하였다. 본 수치모델을 이용하여 고립파와 Stokes의 2차 파낭을 재현한 결과, 이론치와 매우 잘 일치함을 확인하였다.

A numerical method for a wave diffraction problem in three-dimensional channels is developed. The physical models are various shapes of channel connected to the open sea. When a ship or an offshore structure is moored in various configurations of channel connected to an open sea, the prediction of the hydrodynamic force exerting on the moored ship could be important for the prediction of its motion. It is assumed that the fluid is inviscid and incompressible and its motion is irrotational. From the continuity equation, the Laplace equation can be obtained as the governing equation. The surface tension at free surface is neglected, and wave amplitude is assumed to be small compared to the wave length. Then the free surface condition can be linearized. The numerical method used here is the localized finite element method based on a variational formulation

In this study, the supercavitating flow of a high-velocity moving body near air-water surface is calculated and analyzed based on a commercial CFD software ANSYS Fluent. The effect of regular wave parameters including both wave height and wavelength on the cavitating flow and force characteristics of a body at different velocities is investigated. It is found that the cavity shape, lift coefficient and drag coefficient of the body vary periodically with wave fluctuation, and the variation period is basically consistent with wave period. When the wavelength is much greater than the cavity length, the effect of wave on supercavitation is the alternating effect of axial compression and radial compression. However, when the wavelength varies around the cavity length, the cavity often crosses two adjacent troughs and is compressed periodically by the two wave troughs. With the variation of wavelength, the average area of cavity shows a different trend with the change of wave height.

In this research a numerical simulation method is developed for moving body in free surface flows using fixed staggered rectangular grid system. The non-linear free surface near the body is defined by marker-density method. The body boundary is defined by line segment connecting the points where the body surface and grid line meet. Continuity equation and Navier-Stokes equations are used as governing equations and the equations are coupled with two-step projection method. The velocities and pressures of body boundary and free surface cells are calculated with simultaneous iterative method. To treat a body movement in a fixed grid system, the volume displaced by moving body is added to the divergence of the body boundary cell. For the verification of the present numerical method. vortex shedding period of advancing cylinder is calculated and the period is compared with existing experiment results. Moreover, added mass and damping coefficients of a vertically excited box are calculated and the computed results are compared with published experiment results. Impulsive pressure and water level variation due to sloshing phenomenon are simulated and the results are compared with published experiment results. Varying the plunger shape, the waves generated by plunging type wave maker are compared with the 2nd order Stokes wave theory The plunger shape generating the wave that shows the best agreement with the theory is represented.
